My husband's hand tremor is worsening. We have a doctor that plays phone tag for weeks. So frustrating!!!!! So now when I finally pin down an appointment what should we be asking? What kind of testing should they be doing? What are medication options? Is it based on " Oh you have Medicaid? Well, sucks to be you..."

If I were you I would set aside a whole weekend, put on a pot of coffee, and go through the entire archive for this site. You will learn more than your doctors will ever know. -Rick Quote:
